And Then the Storm Cleared.



Man, we have had some nasty weather up here this week. Snow, rain, and wind. The Truckee came up and then came way back down. I hit it today for a few hours. The water had dropped back to the low 40's (it was up to 50 last week) so deep slow water was the ticket. The General Lee John was the hot fly today in a size #10. Like I say in off colored water give them something they can see, not some tiny ass midge pattern. The river should fish very well this weekend. Get up here because with expected high temps next week the river could look like your Latte from Starbucks.

Hit the Truckee Saturday.....fished in town and below Hirschdale and got skunked. Nymphed Rubberlegs Golden Stones with a Might May Dropper....or San Juan Worm, tried poxyback golden stones...saw a few fish but no eats. High expectations, water was a bit fast but looked good. also hit the Little for a bit midday. Saw fish, fished small and light with midges and mays....got a few to move but no eats. We needed some overcast in my opin....Ryan
